No heroes, heroines or villains.

Laurie is the female lead, and Loomis is basically the male lead, Myers the villain. Remember their characters recur throughout the series.

Spaulding, Otis and Baby are the 3 leads of the second film. I can include him for House of 1000 Corpses alone, though.

My bad, I should have said female lead antagonist.

Luke from the Innkeepers, Claire is obviously the lead and Luke barely does anything, so yes.

Nevertheless, the male lead of the film.

In the context of the film, he sure is.

Protagonists (main, joined, couple) both male & female, and antagonists (either male/female or both) are to be excluded. Purely supporting characters are to be considered here. Someone, like the cat lady from Jeepers Creepers or Mrs Dudley from The Haunting, cannot be compared to other choices listed above.
